Well I have been reading all the great posts and I just wanted to say "DAMN WHAT GOOD WORK!" I was part of the Spring Boot Camp of 06 and did so much better with the support of my Lap Band Friends! A recap: I started my journey 12/27/05 at 365lbs, as of today I have lost 131lbs! I still have 49 lbs till I get to overweight not obese and I am hoping to get help from you guys again!

So SARGE TERESITA PRIVATE SHORESEXY REPORTING FOR DUTY SIR!

Lets get this party started! WOO HOO~~~:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

Hey HelenC......

Try applesauce!!!! eat it with a baby spoon it is one of the most soothing foods listed for acid reflux! It should be room temp and take a spoonful and rest inbetween. I had a sundried Tomato stuck in my pouch and the apple sauce was the only thing that soothed me and made me feel better after they opened my band and let it pass. I was irritated and very uncomfortable....... DONT DO THAT AGAIN!! YOU GOT THE BAND TO BE A TOOL.... TAKE CARE OF YOUR TOOLS! GOOD LUCK

I had to join in!

DO NOT TALK TO MY PARROT!!!<O:p</O:p

Wanda's dishwasher quit working so she called a repairman. Since she had to go to

work the next day, she told the repairman, "I'll leave the key under the mat. Fix the

dishwasher, leave the bill on the counter, and I'll mail you a check." <O:p></O:p>

"Oh, by the way don't worry about my bulldog. He won't bother you. But,

whatever you do, do NOT, under ANY circumstances, talk to my parrot!" "I

REPEAT, DO NOT TALK TO MY PARROT!!!" <O:p></O:p>

When the repairman arrived at Wanda's apartment the following day, he

discovered the biggest, meanest looking bulldog he has ever seen. But, just as she had

said, the dog just lay there on the carpet watching the repairman go about his work. <O:p></O:p>

The parrot, however, drove him nuts the whole time with his incessant

yelling, cursing and name calling. Finally the repairman couldn't contain

himself any longer and yelled, <O:p></O:p>

"Shut up, you stupid, ugly bird!" <O:p></O:p>

To which the parrot replied, "Get him, Spike!" <O:p></O:p>

How COOL!!! This will be our Memorial Day Breakfast Treat!!! Thanks for sharing!!!

Mission Accomplished! This week I have had a 5 (FIVE) pound loss AND a 2.5 inch loss!!!!!:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

Just for fun I went back to my First Bootcamp Stats on 2/21/06 and Totaled the numbers~~~~ 23inches~~~~ WooRah!!! And total weight loss since my surgery 5months ago is ~~~76lbs~~~~

Both my Dr. and Nutritionist wanted me to keep a Journal and this has been one order that I have followed constantly! I record my Daily weight, Calories, Protein, Oz of liquid and notes daily. (measurements did not start till 2/21/06 when I joined BootCamp)

I am Proud of this accomplishment! I used 4x6 index cards, one for each day and carried them with me at all times! Charting every thing that passes into my Body. But I found a new tool.

I went out on Friday and purchased myself a new toy! I bought a Palm Z22 Handheld (Its a bit smaller than a deck of cards and cost $99.00) After setting it up and registering the device with my computer and entering my calendar, contacts and such I found a program at Palm.com called DIET ANS EXERCISE. It was $19.99 and after you put in your charge card it downloads on both your computer and the Handheld. It is the Bomb! It records your personal information, BMI, Diet Plan, and has zillions of food choices that can be used, edited or added to, to record your Daily Log. It also lets you record your exercise and does all the calculations as calories burned vs calories taken in. It is new and I continue to use my Index cards till I get the hang of it but I think I am going to love it..

I have stopped toting my Date book, Diet Journal and millions of notes, phone numbers and papers in my Pocketbook! New Me!!!!!! ( I was the original BAG LADY with the over stuffed suitcase with all the papers bulging out of my bag)

I thought I would share this new found TOOL incase anyone else out there was interested. One of the most effective things I have done is keep my journal.

One more thing I have recently changed is going back to a Protein Drink at least once a day. (I wasn't getting in enough protein) My Daily Intake Goal has been: Calories at 1200, Protein at 80+ and my Ounces of liquid at 80+. I really need to take a cue from Telly and Kick up the Excersise!

Thanks to all my LapBandTalk Friends who have encouraged me and kept me from going AWOL. I can't wait to post every week and see everyone's posts!

A BIG WOO HOO TO ALL OF US WHO HAVE DECIDED TO TAKE THIS WONDERFUL JOURNEY TOGETHER!!!!!

I'll Succeed! Holy Crappers, when it rains it pours..... Sorry for all your troubles. Your friend needs you now, We can keep up here.... Teresita did a wonderful job with her color coding loss records..... But as we all learn in BOOT CAMP we don't leave our people behind! We are with you in spirit and prayer!

OK ALL YOU MEMBERS...... DRINK YOUR WATER.... GO FOR A WALK AFTER dinner (even if it is only to the mailbox and back) and COUNT THOSE CALORIES!!!!! WE CAN DO IT.....

Sarge, we will hold down the fort and take the troop on a hike! :rambo

Good week to all!!!

Jen

ShoreSexy has only a one (1) pound loss to report but, I did have a 3 1/2 inch loss......... I have been eating food... real food and not using my journal as much....

I actually went out to a real restaraunt with my Hubby and ate real food.... I had an appetizer, Soup and a prime rib dinner. I had a huge doggy bag but I did sit, eat, enjoy and did not have a PB once!!! I think that is a huge sucess!!!!!! This week is cruch week for me.....

I have had a bathing suit that I ordered a week after my banding (4 sizes smaller) I actually got it on the other day..... I still need more work but it did slip on without bursting the seams..... Memorial Day is fast approaching and so is bathing suit season..... It's crunch time.......

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ONE AND ALL!!!!!!
